It happens to the best of us; we get ready for bed, and as soon as our head touches the pillow, the sound of our neighbor’s brand-new stereo blasting at full volume startles us! Most residents aren’t aware of how sound travels in their apartment home and how it may affect those around them. If your neighbors are a bit noisy, we have some solutions on how to properly address them.

1. Consider Normal Apartment Living Noises - Consider the time of day and what types of noises you are hearing. While living in an apartment community, certain sounds are unavoidable and often unintentional. However, heavy walking traffic during the evening time and loud playing music at 3 AM are totally different things. Knowing what’s normal and what’s not is something to consider.

2. Block Out Unwanted Noise - So your neighbors are noisy, but it’s “normal apartment living” noises. Most Camden apartments come equipped with a ceiling fan. Turn it on so the soft sounds of the blades spinning blocks out some of that unwanted noise. Still not working? SoundSpa machines are awesome! You can often choose what types of noises you’d like to hear; rain, thunder, beach waves, the possibilities are endless.

3. Don't Ignore It - Dealing with the issue right away can eliminate any potential problems. Don't make the situation worse by directly confronting your neighbor, or by stomping on the floor or ceiling. Your Camden office staff is available to assist you with any noise complaints at all hours of the day. Simply call the office during business hours for excessive noise so that we can assist in properly handling the issue. Experiencing issues after hours?
